HTML BASICS: Images

HTML images are defined with the <img> tag. The source file (src), alternative text (alt), and size (width and height) are provided as attributes to the <img> tag.

HTML file: Displayed by browser:
<!DOCTYPE html>
  <html>
    <body>
<img src="images/w3schools.jpg" alt=" text" width="104" height="142">
    </body>
  </html>
This is ALT text

No nitty-gritties about the attributes yet... but this is how every image should be marked up in an HTML document.
